One day, when Maimu sat down at the kitchen table and unwound the crochet thread,
Bim was already watching her suspiciously from a distance. That yarn looked familiar. It was the very one he had been playing with yesterday!
But Maimu explained calmly, \u2018This time, Bim, we\u2019re making something useful: pot holders.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nSoon colourful, cosy crocheted pot holders<\/strong> were taking shape in the kitchen, yellow and purple, pink and purple,
\neach pair with a mood of its own. Cotton yarn, wadding and denim give them strength,
\nbut Maimu always says, \u2018Every stitch is a feeling too.\u2019\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nEvery pair got its own name and personality: Kannikesekell<\/strong> was born in quiet with the spring sunshine,
\nRoosipuu<\/strong> in the warm light of autumn, while tea simmered on the stove and the wind whistled a song at the window.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\u2018Kitchen Harmony\u2019 was born from a little mishap. The fusible interfacing went on the wrong way round at first, and then I ran out of wadding.
\nBut when I made it again, something much better emerged: a warm, peaceful and homely set of two pot holders and a table mat.
\nThe three are like one family, prettier together than apart.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nThese pot holders are like a cheerful greeting beside your morning coffee, bringing back memories of summer mornings in childhood.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\u2018Spiced Vanilla\u2019 is a mixture of calm and spice: a creamy shade, a little golden accent and perfect simplicity.
\nThey are the sort of pot holders that make even the most ordinary morning feel a little special.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
